Code execution via unescaped column width
Published Aug 15, 2026 · Updated Aug 15, 2026
Stored XSS in SiYuan before 3.7.4 allows remote authenticated users to execute code via a crafted table column width. The setAttrViewColWidth operation stores an arbitrary string, and four Attribute View render sites interpolate it unescaped into style attributes. Opening the affected table renders an injected event handler on every cell; Electron Node integration extends execution to the victim's OS account.
